Here I come now with a story
Of the human races' diminishing glory
Do you think it's ok
To keep falling futher from the sun?
'Cause, while their making their decisions
When we people speak up they don't listen
So don't you dare go and die for this system
I'm telling you that's wrong
So come and be open, come and get wise
You think they'll protect you, but don't realise
The war that they make only takes away life, eeeyeah
They'll sell you their stories and tell you what's right
Promise you glory if you go and fight
But don't send their own kids to war in the night, eeeeyooo
Come and check your head
Come and check your head
Against what is right
Get up get up
Contemplating what they're doing
Situation, something's brewing
They'll keep trying to tell us we're wrong
But we keep believing strong
So may we wake up from this slumber
Like their spell we've been living under
'Cause this battle's about to get hotter
I feel it in my heart
And next time you're waiting for something to change
Instead of just sitting and wasting the day
The struggle it breathes now and calls out your name, eeyeah
They start to betray you when thinking of one
There is no shame greater than what they have done
When all their rewards were reaped under a gun, eeyooo
Come and check your head
Come and check your head
Against what is right
Get up get up
(And) I know you feel it when we talk this way
'cause their just is no denying
May the world we live in now carry me today
See our colours keep on flyin', eeeyeah
So come make your own mind and use your own eyes
You see what they're doing and know it ain't right
And they're ain't nothing wrong with us wanting to fight, eeeyeah
There is a resistance that grows everyday
From following blindly to leading the way
And it's not gonna give up till freedom gonna stay, eeeyooo
Come and check your head
Come and check your head
Against what is right
Get up get up
